Yeah, this game is going to be a nail biter.
Newcastle not great on attack, but our attack not setting the world on fire either.
Both teams can defend though.

PVL gonna hate this game.

This game gives me so much anxiety because realistically we should give it to Newcastle but we always seem to suck against them AND we always suck in games we should win so basically I'm back on paroxetine this week

Newcastle are specials here, put your house on a belting. Parramatta to confirm once again that we are nothing but pretenders.

Parra beat Melbourne only 2 weeks ago. They're disintegration and humiliation won't come until next week.

I think the Eels can get through week one. Newcastle's attack won't trouble them.

Got a feeling the knights in this one.
Giving players time off in some cases, especially if there was more than a couple out, could possibly throw out the whole team's sync.

That in itself will be interesting to take note of. But like you, I have this feeling that Newcastle might just turn out to be the dark horse in these finals.

I predic Ponga to do a Turbo in this game if let loose.

Only 6 teams at best deserved to play finals this year. Knights are the least worst of the 10 mediocre to terrible teams in the comp. Eels by plenty.
